Protest in Pink
Claudia Rojas
All colors are made by light; a rainbow
is proof of this. Except for pink:
it doesn’t exist. I mean, pink is magic
like automatic head turns to witness
a woman wreck male-dominated narratives.
Some men would rather believe in mermaids.
Light winks, and my eyes blink.
No more flirting. I desire to run, to run amok.
